Fiver merchandise...that's a conundrum.

If we had completed series' of fivers, I'd suggest making CD-R's of every fiver for a series in perfect HTML so you can link to any of them or go from fiver to fiver in order.

How about paying for the right to five previously done episodes? Over at 5MSG we had many versions of the most popular episodes. Each had their own quirks and sense of humor. Granted, if you opened it up so that anyone could five anything for free, we'd quickly descend into chaos, but if we had to pay five bucks or something to submit our spin on "The Trouble with Tribbles" or something, and have all versions equally accessable, that'd be fun.

Or how about watches with the fiver logo on them? Granted we couldn't use graphics of any Star Trek ships, but just the red sliver would be cool.

Or how about selling CDs of audiofivers? I mean, creating a cast for each series between us, and reading the fivers out loud? Add some basic sound effects and we're good to go!
